Manufacturer
2 recalls in our database name Collins as the manufacturing or recalling firm.
Of the 2 recalls from Collins we have scored against our rubric, 0 (0%) are Critical — deaths or serious injuries reported, or the agency’s own highest classification — and 0 (0%) are Severe.
The manufacturer string comes from the agency’s own source notice — for FDA recalls, the “recalling firm” field; for NHTSA recalls, the vehicle manufacturer; for CPSC recalls, the firm-of-record on the joint press release. A single corporate family can appear under multiple manufacturer strings as agency notices aren’t standardized on a canonical name. If you don’t see recalls you expect, try a parent-company search or a broader full-text search.
Severity scores below are computed from the agency’s classification and the recall text, never from manufacturer behaviour or history. Many manufacturers issue routine corrective actions (software updates, labelling corrections) that are correctly scored low — having recalls on this list isn’t inherently a quality signal.
Collins International and Eagle Hardware are recalling approximately 7,200 Ratchet Tie-Downs because they may break under load, posing a risk of injury or property damage.
Collins is recalling 6,700 Temporary Power Tap extension strips sold in 1987 and 1988 because ungrounded receptacles pose a severe electric shock or electrocution hazard.
